Extracellular matrix remodeling and transforming growth factor-β signaling abnormalities induced by lamin A/C variants that cause lipodystrophy

Mutations in the lamin A/C gene encoding nuclear lamins A and C (lamin A/C) cause familial partial lipodystrophy type 2 (FPLD2) and related lipodystrophy syndromes. These are mainly characterized by redistribution of adipose tissue associated with insulin resistance. Several reports suggest that alt...
